Personal intelligence
What changes for one person?Memory, skills or personal weights. These are distinct mechanisms, even when all are described as learning.
A competitive landscape of decentralized intelligence and per-user evolving AI. The companies, the capital, and the mechanisms behind the claims.
“Decentralized AI” can describe who holds the data, who changes the weights, who provides compute, or who captures the value. Organizations may appear in more than one family.
Memory, skills or personal weights. These are distinct mechanisms, even when all are described as learning.
Participants train locally and share updates. A central coordinator may remain; privacy needs explicit safeguards.
Independent machines collaborate on training or auditing a shared model. This is not automatically personal intelligence.
Agents, models and evaluators participate in a market. Incentive coordination need not imply shared weights.
The groupings are analytical, not company certifications or rankings. Pure GPU marketplaces are outside the core scope unless they also contribute substantive learning or verification technology.
01 / Input
New experienceConversations, files or task outcomes.
02 / Update
Memory or skillPersist facts, retrieve context, or save a reusable procedure.
03 / Next use
Better contextThe same base model receives a different prompt or tool.
04 / Key distinction
Weights may stay fixedUseful adaptation does not require fine-tuning.
Examples: Hermes Agent, EvoSkill and memory-centric personal assistants. These are schematic mechanisms; implementation varies by product. [NO7] [SN3] [PA6]

01 / Personal intelligence
Proprietary personal models, now moving into telecom memory infrastructure.
Per-user weightsClaimed
Company claim Make persistent, identity-specific intelligence available to individuals and organizations through memory-based small models. [PA7]
Company claim Personal AI offers memory and persona products. Its March 2026 release describes Comcast AI Grid trials for voice and personalized inference; trials are not evidence of a nationwide rollout. [PA5] [PA7]
Analysis Professional and enterprise knowledge, customer-facing assistants and telecom services. Go-to-market is expanding from direct product adoption toward operator and infrastructure partnerships. Current audited customer counts and revenue were not found. [PA7]
Documented 2020 public founding; Human AI Labs legally incorporated on 20 November 2019. [PA1] [PA2]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $7.8M cumulative seed capital announced January 2023. [PA8]
Company claim Republic campaign closed April 2024. The page shows $1,769,074 in one place and $1,694,075 in closing materials; treat proceeds as unresolved. [PA3]
Reported A filing index lists $14.13M on 18 December 2025. The original filing was not recovered; do not add this to earlier figures or call it a verified Series A. [PA4]
Documented FY2023 revenue: $138,319; net loss: $2,837,808, per filed statements. These historical figures do not establish 2026 revenue, cash or runway. A current cumulative funding total remains unresolved. [PA1]
Company claim Earlier MODEL-2 materials describe separately trained expert models and persona memory banks. Documentation also describes retrieving memory blocks into context. The current edge architecture combines specialist SLMs with a Memory Core. Public documentation does not specify which new interactions change weights versus only memory. [PA5] [PA6] [PA7]
Unverified Personalization is proprietary. Weight export, training cadence, deletion from weights and inter-user federated exchange were not established by the reviewed sources.
Documented Product documentation covers personas and memory retrieval. [PA5] [PA6]
Company claim Edge inference trials with Comcast were announced in March 2026. Performance and cost claims are issuer-reported. [PA7]
Roadmap Broader telecom deployment and persistent multimodal memory are strategic directions. No dated, independently verifiable delivery schedule was found. [PA7]
Ask for a demonstration that separates memory retrieval from weight updates, and for contractual portability and deletion guarantees.

02 / Personal intelligence
A personal context network with a research path toward private model adaptation.
Per-user weightsResearch / planned
Company claim Let users control personal context and use an open network of agents to fulfill intents. [PI1]
Documented Current product page offers iOS, Android and APK distribution, with personal-assistant and voice-keyboard positioning. The existence of download links does not validate every claimed capability or app-store availability in every region. [PI5]
Analysis Consumer personal assistants and Web3 users; developer agents supply services. App onboarding, data connectors and community incentives are the acquisition paths. Intent-service economics remain less substantiated than the app surface. [PI1] [PI5]
Reported 2024 launch / operating year; exact incorporation date not verified. [PI1]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $10M pre-seed announced 9 September 2024; Hack VC, a16z CSX and other investors. No later primary-source round was reconciled. [PI1]
Unverified Revenue, cash, burn, paid-user count and current valuation were not verified. Token rewards are not evidence of revenue.
Company claim Personal Index organizes user context for retrieval / graph retrieval; hybrid local and cloud inference adapts to device capacity. The platform design puts continuous user-specific fine-tuning in future work. zkTLS supports data provenance; it is not a general proof of learning privacy. [PI2]
Reported Guardian of Data proposes training a private assistant through simulated queries and curriculum learning in trusted execution environments. A research paper and repository exist; mass deployment of continuously evolving per-user weights is not established. [PI3] [PI4]
Request device-level evidence of weight updates, the exact trust boundary of cloud / TEE processing, and retention controls.

03 / Personal intelligence
The closest stated federated personal-AI vision; implementation evidence is limited.
Per-user weightsPlanned / disputed live claims
Company claim Combine private personal models with collective improvement and distributed ownership, particularly for underserved or restricted-access markets. [HY1]
Company claim OrbVPN documentation describes a hybrid support assistant and labels decentralized learning as future work. Hylon’s own pages additionally advertise node beta and describe some device tiers as live. These descriptions are not fully reconciled. [HY1] [HY2] [HY4]
Analysis Existing OrbVPN / OrbNet distribution is the proposed entry point; ORB rewards are intended to recruit contributors. A repeatable, separately measured Hylon AI business is not established. [HY1] [HY2]
Unverified Founding date and separate legal entity not verified. OrbVPN history should not be substituted for Hylon’s founding date.
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Unverified No verified round dates, amounts or investors found. ORB incentives and treasury plans are not completed fundraising.
Unverified No Hylon-specific revenue, audited user count, cash balance or valuation established. Parent-network distribution claims do not prove active AI users. [HY1]
Roadmap The whitepaper proposes local LoRA adapters and encrypted memory, clipped and noised updates, secure aggregation, and GPU-based global training. Phones primarily handle inference; PCs may adapt models. A gated champion–challenger process would approve global releases. [HY3] [HY4]
Unverified DP and secure aggregation are design claims. Public privacy budgets, attack evaluations and evidence of a complete deployed training loop were not found. The whitepaper’s approximately one-million-device architecture is not a verified active-node count. [HY4]
Company claim Support-assistant and node-beta claims exist, but independently auditable evidence for per-user adaptation plus global aggregation is missing. [HY1] [HY2]
Roadmap Gate 0: self-hosted model and personal adaptation; later gates target a product niche, autonomous improvement and frontier-scale capability. Relative durations lack a dependable start date and are conditional, not calendar commitments. [HY4]
Require a running learning-loop demo, public release artifacts, named accountable leadership and independent privacy validation before treating the architecture as shipped.

04 / Personal intelligence
A local-first agent shell; public examples are not a trained personal model.
Per-user weightsNot demonstrated
Company claim Provide a personal operating layer for agents, plugins and user-owned workflows. [SE1]
Documented The community edition supplies mobile shells, agent/runtime interfaces and example integrations. Its README explicitly limits it to deterministic example agents; users supply provider integrations and credentials. [SE1]
Analysis Developer/community distribution through a public repository, with a broader managed ecosystem described beyond the open edition. Commercial conversion and pricing are not verified. [SE1] [SE2]
Unverified SELF Labs incorporation and SELF-OS project launch date not reliably established. This profile covers selflabs/SELF-OS only.
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Unverified No attributable public venture round, amount or valuation verified for this entity.
Unverified Revenue, paid adoption and operating scale not verified. Repository activity is not a commercial-traction metric.
Documented AgentRuntime and PluginRegistry coordinate actions. HarmonyMesh, wallet, catalog and Aura-related surfaces include mocks or boundaries rather than a complete decentralized production backend. No bundled personal-model training loop is demonstrated. [SE1] [SE2]
Analysis Local orchestration can improve control over workflow state. It does not establish ownership of remote provider weights or independence from cloud inference.
Documented Public integration shell and deterministic example agents. [SE1]
Roadmap The broader managed runtime, mesh and ecosystem described by the project exceed the community edition. No independently substantiated delivery dates were found. [SE2]
Ask which components are executable today, which require managed services, and whether learning changes memory, code or weights.

05 / Shared-model infrastructure
Independent parties hold parts of one jointly trained model.
Per-user weightsNo personal model by design
Company claim Keep advanced models under distributed control through protocol learning, with contributors owning only parts of a network. [PL2]
Reported Agora’s July 2026 paper reports an 8.6B-parameter model trained on 500B tokens over 40 days with 330 contributing nodes. These are author-reported experiment results, not independently reproduced benchmarks. [PL4]
Analysis Initially researchers and GPU contributors; potentially organizations seeking shared control of model training and serving. Protocol participation and future inference economics are more evidenced than a mature enterprise sales business. [PL2] [PL5]
Company claim Early 2024, according to the seed announcement. [PL1]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $7.6M seed announced 19 March 2025, led by Union Square Ventures and CoinFund. No later confirmed round found. [PL1] [PL2]
Unverified Recurring revenue, commercial customer count, valuation and cash balance not established.
Reported Subspace Networks partition layers across nodes and compress inter-stage activations and backward signals in low-dimensional spaces. This is model parallelism, unlike a fleet of complete personal models exchanging user-specific knowledge. [PL3]
Company claim Protocol learning aims to prevent any single participant from possessing the whole model. Extraction resistance depends on the protocol and adversary assumptions; sharding alone is not proof against collusion. [PL2]
Documented Public technical papers and a reported multi-contributor training run. [PL3] [PL4]
Roadmap Scale open training / inference and contributor economics. A dated general-availability or revenue roadmap was not verified. [PL5]
Evaluate node churn, collusion and extraction assumptions, and compare end-to-end training efficiency including communication.

06 / Shared-model infrastructure
Two layers: distributed model training and a personal agent that builds reusable skills.
Per-user weightsNot automatic in Hermes Agent
Company claim Give people and businesses control of adaptable intelligence through open models and agent software. [NO1]
Documented Hermes models and the MIT-licensed Hermes Agent are public. The release archive states Hermes 4.3 Seed was post-trained on Psyche. Business offerings were announced in October 2026. [NO6] [NO7] [NO1]
Analysis Open-model and agent adoption creates a developer funnel into hosted plans and business / enterprise deployments. Enterprise distribution is a newer focus, not proof of mature enterprise penetration. [NO1]
Company claim 2023 formation, stated by the CEO in October 2026. Earlier informal community activity is not the same as company formation. [NO1]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Reported $50M Series A, April 2025, chiefly Paradigm. [NO3]
Company claim $90M announced October 2026; participants include NVIDIA, M12, Samsung, Robot Ventures, USV, YC and Menlo. [NO1]
Reported Reported total: $158M; valuation: $1.5B. Earlier-round breakdown remains unverified. [NO2]
Unverified Current audited revenue, cash and paid-customer counts were not verified. Agent downloads, clones and token usage should not be interpreted as unique paying users.
Reported Psyche uses low-communication distributed optimization with peer coordination and verification. DeMo compresses momentum in a discrete-cosine-transform basis and exchanges selected components while retaining local state. The DisTrO / DeMo research line reduces synchronization traffic; it does not pool personal memories. [NO5]
Documented Hermes Agent persists context and generates reusable skills. That improvement mechanism does not, by itself, update the underlying model weights. Users may self-host and select a model provider. [NO7]
Separate the agent’s memory/skills metrics from model-training metrics; validate permissioning, reproducibility and enterprise deployment controls.
Profile last verified: · 8 cited sources · Official site / repository ↗
07 / Shared-model infrastructure
Open training infrastructure for organizations that want to own their optimization loop.
Per-user weightsCustomer training, not default per-person
Company claim Make training, deployment and continual improvement of open models accessible outside major labs. [PR1]
Documented Lab, compute, inference and open research artifacts are available. On 13 October 2026, Prime announced the acquisition of Moondream to expand multimodal models and inference; deal terms were not disclosed. [PR3] [PR4]
Analysis AI startups, model builders and enterprise agent teams. Open research and developer tooling feed paid compute, reinforcement learning, evaluation and inference services. [PR1]
Reported Founders began in late 2023; public company activity and seed financing followed in 2024. Legal incorporation date not verified. [PR10] [PR3]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $5.5M seed in April 2024, co-led by Distributed Global and CoinFund; $15M funding announced February 2025, led by Founders Fund. [PR11] [PR12]
Company claim $130M Series A on 8 July 2026, led by Radical Ventures with NVIDIA Ventures, Intel Capital and Dell Technologies Capital. Company states total funding exceeds $150M. [PR1]
Documented Transaction counsel reports a $1B valuation for the Series A. [PR2]
Company claim July 2026 announcement reports more than 6,000 customers and over $100M in annualized revenue. This is an issuer run-rate claim, not audited annual revenue or a stated recurring-software ARR figure. [PR1]
Reported INTELLECT-1 uses DiLoCo-style local optimization with infrequent synchronization of model updates. INTELLECT-2 distributes reinforcement-learning rollouts, while policy training consumes their results. INTELLECT-3 extends the open-model program. This does not establish federated learning over private personal data. [PR5] [PR6] [PR7]
Analysis Customers can train models for their workflows and control resulting deployments, subject to model and service terms. A customer-owned optimization loop differs from every consumer running an independent evolving model.
Documented Public model reports and a commercial training stack; the reported decentralized experiments should be assessed separately from ordinary hosted cloud jobs. [PR3] [PR5] [PR6]
Roadmap Larger RL runs, long-horizon agents, automated research and continual production learning. These are explicit investment directions, not evidence that all models learn safely during production use. [PR1]
Request workload-specific quality/cost results, ownership terms, reproducible training recipes and robust controls against reward hacking.

08 / Shared-model infrastructure
Make AI computation auditable across hardware; connect it to information markets.
Per-user weightsNot a per-user model product
Company claim Enable verifiable machine intelligence and an open economy for useful information. [GE3] [GE4]
Reported Delphi launched in April 2026 as an AI-settled information-market product. Market-creator and network fees form its stated commercial design; broad adoption is not independently established. [GE2]
Analysis AI infrastructure builders and information-market creators / traders. This is now broader than a GPU marketplace, but remains adjacent to personal model ownership.
Documented 2020, per investor company record and founder history. [GE1]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $1.1M pre-seed in 2021; $6.5M seed in 2022 led by Eden Block; $43M Series A in June 2023 led by a16z crypto. [GE5] [GE6]
Reported $16.7M venture round in October 2025, per April 2026 reporting. Known venture rounds sum to $67.3M; completeness is not assured. [GE2]
Reported Separate December 2025 token sale: $11.7M proceeds after refunds, versus $16.14M commitments. The reported $1B figure is fully diluted network value, not an equity valuation. [GE2]
Unverified Current audited revenue, cash and active paying-customer figures were not verified. Trading volume and token proceeds should not be treated as software revenue.
Documented REE / RepOps enforce repeatable arithmetic and execution across supported hardware. open-1b publishes training artifacts and hashes so others can replay steps. Its September 2026 release explicitly says the original training was centralized; auditing is decentralized. [GE3] [GE4]
Analysis Replay can establish that computation matches a declared process. It cannot establish that a model’s answer is true, its dataset is benign, or market incentives cannot be gamed.
Documented open-1b checkpoints, training evidence and an audit harness were released; the issuer reports 1.61B total parameters and 400B training tokens. We did not rerun the audit. [GE4]
Distinguish deterministic execution, training provenance and output correctness; quantify audit coverage and verification overhead.

09 / Federated learning
Practical infrastructure for learning across data that stays with its owners.
Per-user weightsSupported as a developer-built design
Company claim Train useful models on distributed, privately held data without first pooling all raw data centrally. [FL1]
Documented Open federated-learning framework, FlowerTune examples and enterprise / SuperGrid platform materials exist. Flower Intelligence began as a local/cloud inference preview; Endeavor 1.0 is an access-by-request model preview announced in September 2026. [FL4] [FL5] [FL6]
Analysis Organizations with data silos, including healthcare, finance and industrial teams. Open-source developer adoption supports enterprise deployment and infrastructure services. [FL1]
Documented Flower Labs formed in 2023; the open-source Flower framework dates to 2020. [FL2] [FL3]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $3.6M pre-seed in 2023, led by First Spark Ventures; $20M Series A on 15 February 2024, led by Felicis. Identified rounds total $23.6M. [FL1]
Unverified Current revenue, valuation, cash and paid-user figures were not verified. Open-source usage is not equivalent to paying enterprise adoption.
Documented Clients train locally; a strategy aggregates updates. The FlowerTune example uses LoRA / parameter-efficient LLM adaptation and FedAvg. Its documented simulation is an example, not proof of a global production consumer deployment. [FL4]
Analysis Federation can retain raw data at each participant. The deployment owner chooses aggregation, personalization and safeguards; a coordinator may remain central. Differential privacy and secure aggregation must be explicitly configured and evaluated. [FL4] [ME1]
Documented Runnable framework and federated LLM example, with local/cloud inference tooling on a separate product track. [FL4] [FL5]
Roadmap Broader private collaborative AI, models and enterprise infrastructure. No dated rollout of an independently evolving model for every consumer was verified. [FL6]
A strong implementation candidate: test non-identical client data, device costs, privacy budgets and personalization retention after aggregation.

10 / Federated learning
Federated-learning infrastructure alongside a broader model and agent business.
Per-user weightsDeveloper-enabled, not established for every user
Company claim Make model development, deployment and agent creation economical for developers and enterprises. [TE1]
Documented FedML / TensorOpera federated documentation, model serving and agent tools are public. Teamily’s July 2026 launch extends the product surface toward collaborative consumer / team agents. [TE3] [TE4] [TE7]
Analysis Enterprise model and agent builders, plus teams using agent products. Developer onboarding and hosted training / serving support commercial infrastructure sales. [TE1] [TE3]
Company claim February 2022 company formation. The FedML research library predates the company, with a 2020 paper. [TE1] [TE6]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim July 2023 release reports $11.5M seed in total: $4.3M earlier financing plus $7.2M additional funding, led by Camford. Do not add $4.3M again. [TE2]
Company claim Current company biography says $13.2M seed. Timing and reconciliation of the extra $1.7M were not verified. Related ChainOpera financing is not included. [TE1]
Unverified Current audited revenue, valuation and cash balance not established. Platform-registration and ecosystem-user claims are not comparable to paid customers.
Documented FedML supports coordinated training across data holders. Separately, TensorOpera Router selects models for requests, and agent products manage context and tools. Routing or persistent agent memory should not be mistaken for a new personal model trained on every interaction. [TE4] [TE5]
Analysis Privacy and model ownership depend on the chosen federated or hosted deployment. No reviewed evidence establishes universal, ongoing per-person fine-tuning across its consumer products.
Choose the product layer first: federated SDK, hosted model platform and Teamily have different learning and data-control properties.

11 / Intelligence ecosystems
Open agent improvement and model ownership, without requiring personal weight updates.
Per-user weightsNot required by EvoSkill
Company claim Advance open reasoning and community participation in the development and economics of AI. [SN2]
Documented Current public work includes EvoSkill, Arena, OML and the GRID ecosystem. GRID’s launch was reported in September 2025. Product existence does not establish decentralized training of personal models. [SN2] [SN3] [SN4]
Analysis Open-source agent developers, researchers and enterprise evaluation teams. Community challenges and reusable research attract contributors; sustainable commercial conversion remains less visible. [SN2]
Reported 2024; January founding reported by a company directory. Exact incorporation date not verified. [SN6]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Company claim $85M seed announced July 2024, led by Founders Fund, Pantera and Framework. [SN1]
Reported A token-transparency database lists $7.6M on 19 January 2026. Primary proceeds reconciliation was not recovered; keep this separate and unverified. [SN5]
Unverified Audited revenue, cash, valuation and paid-user counts not verified. Ecosystem partner totals do not establish recurring revenue.
Documented EvoSkill uses evaluation and failed agent trajectories to propose reusable skills. It improves the agent’s instructions / tools without requiring model training. OML addresses model ownership and usage accountability; a composable agent network is a different mechanism from federated weight exchange. [SN2] [SN3]
Analysis Open artifacts improve inspectability, while platform rules and incentives still shape participation. Benchmark gains do not prove broad continual learning or robust personal-data privacy.
Documented EvoSkill code and public research / evaluation surfaces. [SN2] [SN3]
Roadmap Eldros is listed as coming soon with an expected 2026 release; the page still presents a waitlist at the cutoff. Broader AGI ambitions remain goals. [SN2]
Audit evaluation design and reward gaming; separate skill evolution, model fingerprinting and model-weight training in demos.

12 / Intelligence ecosystems
An incentive network for useful machine outputs, not a single jointly trained model.
Per-user weightsNot a universal protocol feature
Company claim Reward useful machine intelligence through a network of specialized markets. [BI2]
Documented Public protocol documentation defines miners, validators, subnet owners and staking. This report does not audit live subnet quality, throughput or profitability. [BI2]
Analysis Subnet builders, model / service operators and applications consuming their outputs. Economic rewards attract supply, while demand and commercial utility must be assessed subnet by subnet. [BI2]
Documented Network launched November 2021, per the 2022 paper. This is a protocol-launch date, not verified incorporation of a single company. [BI1]
Roles and professional links last checked 13 October 2026. Unlisted links were not guessed; LinkedIn may require sign-in.
Not comparable No single corporate round ledger represents the protocol. TAO purchases, token market capitalization and subnet financing are not interchangeable with startup capital raised.
Unverified Network-wide business revenue and foundation financials were not reconciled. Token emissions reward participation; they are not necessarily customer demand.
Documented Miners supply outputs or services; validators score contributions; consensus and incentives allocate rewards. Each subnet defines its task. The protocol does not automatically merge independently trained weights into one improving global model. [BI2] [BI3]
Analysis Control is distributed across subnet rules, validators and stake. Incentive alignment, evaluator quality and concentration matter as much as the number of nodes.
Documented A documented operating protocol and tooling ecosystem; individual subnet capability requires separate diligence. [BI1] [BI2]
Unverified No single verified, dated roadmap covers all subnets. Future model-learning mechanisms depend on individual teams and protocol evolution.
Inspect a specific subnet’s task, anti-gaming design, real buyers and net economics before attributing intelligence gains to the network.

Public-source research through 13 October 2026. The report distinguishes record verification from validation of a system’s performance.
A filing, public artifact, product interface, named role or implementation description was located. No implied independent performance audit.
An attributable issuer statement, including fundraising and product claims. Press releases remain issuer evidence even when syndicated.
Secondary reporting, or explicitly attributed research results. The original system or transaction was not independently reproduced.
A future direction, expected launch, proposed mechanism or gated objective. It is not credited as shipped.
Missing, conflicting or insufficiently supported information. This means unresolved, not false or nonexistent.
Our interpretation of the evidence, including architecture families, go-to-market implications and diligence priorities.
Local data does not automatically mean private learning. Model updates can leak training information. Privacy claims need a threat model, privacy accounting and evidence about what each participant can observe. [ME1]
Round amounts are not added when they may overlap. Token commitments, net proceeds, network valuations, revenue run rates and equity financing are kept distinct. An older financial disclosure is labeled with its period.
CEO and CTO are explicit fields. Missing titles are not inferred from a cofounder’s technical background. Professional LinkedIn URLs are included only where matched to the person; some pages require sign-in. Flower’s technical cofounder is labeled CSO, and PIN’s Regan Peng has a visible title change.
Sources were inspected for relevance and attribution, with preference for filings, official documentation, repositories, research papers and issuer announcements. No company was contacted. We did not execute training jobs, audit smart contracts, verify private cap tables or test paid product accounts.
Undated pages and professional profiles can change. “Last verified” records the research date, not proof that every statement on a living page was historically true. No post-cutoff claims are intentionally included. This is a curated competitive set, not an exhaustive industry census.
Scope choices. Flower and TensorOpera are included as practical federated-learning enablers; Sentient and Bittensor as alternative coordination and ownership mechanisms. Hylon is retained because its stated design is directly relevant, with evidence gaps explicit. SELF OS means the selflabs/SELF-OS project, not similarly named companies. Generic memory frameworks, broad personal-assistant products and compute-only marketplaces are not separately profiled.
